GROVE CITY, Pa. – Dr. Linda Christie, Grove City College associate professor of business, has been awarded a sabbatical for the fall 2007 semester to research Chinese businesses. She is the first female faculty member to be awarded the honor since the inception of the sabbatical program during the 2004-05 academic year.
During her sabbatical, Christie will research and write several international business cases dealing with companies based in Beijing, Hong Kong, Xinjiang and Shanghai, China. She will focus on ethics and contemporary issues facing established multi-national businesses and entrepreneurs in China.
Prior to coming to Grove City College in 2000, the Pittsburgh native held faculty positions at George Washington and George Mason universities. She earned her bachelor’s degree from Indiana University and her master’s and Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University. In May, she will lead an Intersession course focusing on entrepreneurship to China.
Ten other faculty members have taken sabbaticals since the College began offering the program.
